Plank Road Pizza Now Open in Cottleville

Plank Road Pizza(5212 Highway N, Cottleville; 636-477-6155) is now open in Cottleville in St. Charles. It's one of several new restaurants out west, including Rack House Winery and Se7en Cupcakes and Martinis. An 1841 home -- the oldest still standing in Cottleville -- houses the restaurant.

There are even dessert pizzas -- we're eyeing the "Strawberry Surprise," topped with Nutella, fresh strawberries, crushed pretzels and fresh mint. You can check out the full menu here.

"We had been talking about it for a few years, me and my partner, and we talked around the idea of maybe an ice-cream place," Brewer told us in June. "We've always liked pizza, so we thought that would be more of a year-round thing for people to enjoy and around here."
